Behind the mitre: The moral leadership crisis in the Canadian Catholic Church

Clarke, Tony

Harperperennial

The Place Light Gets In is a collection of memoirs written over several years by a group of eight individuals who all started writing to record some of their memories for others to read. In the process, they found forgotten memories and new friendships that gave them insight and support for building their writing skills and coping during the pandemic.The stories contained in the book are as varied as the people who wrote them. With an age range of fifty years, the one thing these writers have in common is that they are Episcopalians and were brought together by an idea inspired by two priests at Holy Innocents’ Episcopal Church. Beyond that, they have many different backgrounds and life experiences to share in their stories.These memoirs will take you across the globe from an unexpected ride on a camel in Cairo to the anxiety of returning home from Australia at the start of the pandemic. Through the stories, you will travel through time from a young man’s naïve enlistment in the National Guard and subsequent deployment across an ocean to fight in the Korean War, to the difficult adjustments of changing our expectations for daily life during COVID.Relationships are uncovered, whether they are about joyful celebrations together, hilarious predicaments, profound loss, or riveting experiences that renew one’s faith. Through all these stories, the writers hope you will enjoy reading their memoirs and be inspired to write about your own memories.Join the following writers on their journeys: Beverly Baker, Tony Clarke, Stefan Fatzinger, Carolyn Fore, Christy Baker Knight, Jeannie Longley, Sally Parsonson, and Janet Wilson.

Health and safety is important to everyone nowadays, especially with the burgeoning extent of legislation and regulations in the area both in UK terms but perhaps more importantly within and across the European Community. One of the industries most affected by this is the building and construction sector, which because of its traditionally poor record in this respect and its widespread and under-policed activities is now subject to the Construction, Design and Management (CDM) Regulations. These require that every project involving building or demolition work which is undertaken, regardless of the industry concerned and for what purpose, must be planned and documented according to these safety regulations and procedures. Non-compliance can attract heavy penalties, including fines and prison sentences. In addition, the possibilities of actions like this, and their contingent financial costs, are beginning to determine a whole philosophy to underpin business management. It is therefore vital to understand exactly what legal obligations and duties are inherent in either managing, contracting or carrying out a given piece of work. Lack of knowledge of this nature can prove to be very costly, so this book will show you how to find your way around the maze of rules and regulations in order to improve your business efficiency and reduce exposure to financial risk.

Global Showdown: How the New Activists Are Fighting Global Corporate Rule

International tensions around water are rising in many of the world's most volatile regions. The policy recipe pursued by the West, and imposed on governments elsewhere, is to pass control over water to private interests, which simply accelerates the cycle of inequality and deprivation. California, as well as China, South Africa, Mexico and countries on every continent already face a crisis. This book exposes the enormity of the problem, the dangers of the proposed solution and the alternative, which is to recognize access to water as a fundamental human right, not dependent on ability to pay.
